Gemstones. A wedding band is typically a seamless ring without any gemstones and designs, but there is not harm in adding one. A gemstone creates a dainty and delicate design. If you want to include a gemstone, think of how you will place it. Also, if the bride’s ring has a stone, it is not necessary for the grooms ring to sport one; it looks better plain. Speaking of possible gemstone choices, white diamonds are by far the most choice. Amethyst, turquoise, pearls and chocolate diamonds are other favorites for a wedding ring. When you buy a ring with a stone, choose one that has special meaning in your life. It could be a birth stone. Select one that is hard enough to withstand everyday wear.

It is interesting to note that in the long history of the wedding ring that it is only in the last century that men have begun to wear them. However, now both men and women show their love and commitment by exchanging rings on their wedding day. Once you begin shopping for rings you may be amazed by the choices that await you. There are several different types of metals: traditional gold, white gold, platinum, and titanium. You can have an inscription put on the inside of the band if you like. Some people are even choosing a tattoo band. The styles vary from a simple, yet elegant band to an elaborate ring covered with jewels. If you do not buy the wedding and engagement rings as a set you will want to be sure the styles are compatible. Choose carefully because this choice will need to stand the test of eternity.

Cut, color, clarity, and carat are the four important factors of diamond rings. From the cut of a diamond ring you can have a fair idea regarding the shape and proportion of the stone. Diamond wedding rings are available in shapes like marquise, pear, oval, princess, emerald, heart, and round. However, 75% of diamond wedding rings sold world wide are round in appearance. Color of the ring plays a vital role in its price. Diamonds of yellow, green, red, orange, blue, and pink color are generally costlier. Diamond rings in faint or pale color are the most desirable and but they are rare. While on your way to shop diamond wedding rings do not fall to the idea that diamonds are only white in color.
